1) Jason Dean - Hands-on Building an Adobe AIR application with HTML, JavaScript, jQuery and SQLite
Adobe AIR gives web developers the power and flexibility to develop desktop applications using the technologies that they already know. We will build a simple AIR application (using HTML, JavaScript, jQuery and SQLite) and lay the groundwork for building more advanced applications.

This is a hands-on session. You are not required to participate. You will still get something out of watching the process. But if you want to participate, you will need to bring a laptop computer with the following already installed:

* Aptana Studio http://aptana.com/studio
* The Adobe AIR plugin for Aptana Studio http://aptana.com/air
* CFEclipse installed into Aptana Studio http://cfeclipse.org/download.cfm

You can test your Aptana/AIR installation by following the guide here:

1) Steve Schefsky - Patching ColdFusion
Today's environment makes keeping up-to-date with critical product patches more important than ever before. Patching regularly keeps your product running smoothly and prevents hackers from exploiting known security flaws. This presentation will walk you through the update process.

2) Ben Ellefson - Managing multiple websites with one codebase
Do you have multiple clients sites that each have their own similar codebase? Learn to save time by managing multiple websites on a singular codebase. Follow step-by-step as we take a simple Content Management website and convert it to use a singluar codebase for an infinite number of websites.

Event posted on Mar 03 by tccfug

The conference will be held on April 6^th and only costs $40.  In this economy, this could be the best conference value out there.  We had an outstanding response from our first Camp last year and were asked by many to make this an annual conference.  We’ll be at the Minneapolis Public Library again and we have another great lineup of local speakers.  The session titles and descriptions will be trickling onto the site over the next few days.  Last year we sold out in just two days, space is limited.

1) Kurt Wiersma - Javascript Frameworks Deathmatch (CFObjective preview)
JQuery v. Prototype v. EXT-JS v. Spry

Ding Ding! Come see a boxing match between the heavweights of the
javascript framework world. Who wants to deal with javascript without
a library to help you out? Have you ever wondered what the pros and
cons are of each library? Come to this session to see strengths and
weakness of each of these libraries.

2) Jason Dean - ColdFusion Application Security: The Next Step (CFObjective preview)

We've all parameterized our SQL queries to prevent SQL injection attacks, right? So what's next? Are our applications safe now? No, they are not. SQL injection is only the tip of the vulnerability iceberg. There are many other security topics that need to be addressed in our applications. Threats and vulnerabilities are everywhere, and it is likely that your applications contain some of them. In this presentation we will discuss what threatens web applications and how to create countermeasures to address these vulnerabilities.

1) Jason Dean: The Basics of HTTP

As web developers we use the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) everyday in our work. But how many of us really understand how it works? Understanding how HTTP works is the basis for understanding topics like Session Management, Cookies, Application Security, and Web Services.

Topics:

• How the HTTP protocol works with our applications
• How HTTP Messages are constructed
• How to interpret Status Codes
• What are the different Request Methods
• Transport Layer Security/Secure Sockets Layer (TSL/SSL)

2) Daryl Banttari: Intro to Packet Analysis with Wireshark
The basics of using Wireshark to view HTTP communication at its lowest level - TCP/IP. A short discussion of troubleshooting will follow.

We'll be discussing how to gather, interpret, and act on information "hidden" in Java stack traces, using real-world examples and demonstrations.

CFObjective() Conference - HYATT REGENCY Minneapolis
Event posted on Jan 21 by tccfug

In 2009, we will be offering four tracks, based on feedback from attendees:

• Architecture and Design in Software
  Just like a sturdy building relies on planning, proven concepts and a solid foundation, the best ColdFusion applications rely on solid architecture to ensure a stable, maintainable product. The Architecture and Design in Software track brings together some of the greatest Software Architects who will provide the foundation for robust applications.
• RIA: Flex/Ajax/AIR
  Rich Internet Applications (RIA) are not just a buzzword anymore. They are an integral part of many organization's business model, both on the web as well as the desktop. If you are new to RIAs or a seasoned pro, this track will provide you with you invaluable information on creating rich experiences for your user base via Adobe Flex, Adobe AIR and Ajax.
• Process and Methodology
  At the core of any successful project are two commonly overlooked factors: Process and Methodology. Learn to effectively plan and implement your development efforts on projects large and small with sessions targeting development methodologies, environment planning and Framework implementation.
• Integration and Tools
  Most ColdFusion applications are not an island unto themselves. Robust applications need to interact with databases, web services and external programs. As well as learning to consume data from various sources and extend ColdFusion via other languages, the Integration and Tools track will also give you an inside look at the IDEs and projects that help you build extensible, maintainable applications.
